I need some help and direction as I am not to fluent with in-depth computer building/upgrading.
This is my computer with all the specs listed:

Recommended System Requirements
* OS: Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7
* CPU: Core 2 Quad 3 GHz
* RAM: 3 GB
* HDD: 15 GB free disk space
* Graphics: 512 MB Graphics Memory
* Sound Card: DirectX 9 Compatible
* DirectX: Version 9.0c
Supported Graphics Cards:
Minimum – 8800 GT
Recommended – Geforce GTX 460/Radeon 5850
My computer has a Radeon 5770 graphics card, and to me it seems as if that is a lesser card then the one listed above in the quote? Yes?
I am going to be running Skyrim on a 40" HD TV from my PC, if that makes any difference? As in, I'll need a better graphics card?
So will I be needing to update my graphics card to get MAXIMUM benefits from the game and run it at MAX settings on my 40" TV? If Yes, how does that effect other areas of my PC? Will I need a new power supply? (Current is a 460W)
Thanks to anyone who contributes here. If you need more information please let me know.
